Happy Birthday to Me – who remembers that movie?

There she is…Mary Ingalls, circa 1981 (Melissa Sue Anderson), the featured character in this horror film that to this day freaks me out about fondue skewers and lifting weights alone. It got lost in the shuffle between the Halloween movies, Freddie Nightmare flicks.

The big 3-8….not exactly notable….but instead of clinging to my middle 30’s of which 37 could stretch to be included in…I’m a heckuva lot closer to 40 now. Who cares. Toting around a 3-month old, a 4-year old and beautiful bride…who cares about age.

The birthday’s been a calm day. Just worked, continued unpacking, picking up Shane from school, and later Mindy at the train station, and the four of us headed out to the Putnam County Diner. That’s it. Never been big on the fanfare anyway, although thanks to those who posted birthday wishes on facebook. Would much rather bask in my kids’ birthdays though as well as my neice and nephews. Shane had a duckpin bowling party and as Kayla, Nick’s, Cyan’s, Evan’s first and then Tyler’s birthdays come and we’re in town now, there’ll be plenty of birthday cake to be had. Great,…that combined with being 38 should be awesome for the waist-line (chocolate cream pie and the black and white cookie). Better those than fondue I suppose.
